HUNDREDS of demonstrators packed the streets of Bromley protesting against the work of an animal research firm.

The Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty group is campaigning for the closure of the Cambridgeshire laboratory Huntingdon Life Sciences, which it believes treats animals with unnecessary cruelty.

Spokesman Kevin Jonas said: "Huntingdon Life Sciences kills 500 animals a day in painful experiments. We will continue campaigning until its work ends."
